The patch titled Make __d_path() to take a struct path argument has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was make-__d_path-to-take-a-struct-path-argument.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Make __d_path() to take a struct path argument From: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@xxxxxxx> One less argument to __d_path. All callers to __d_path pass the dentry and vfsmount of a struct path to __d_path. Pass the struct path directly, instead.
